2 and a half months out

854 views

So 10 weeks out and I've lost 38 pounds. I could have lost more if I was exercising but I haven't been. I bought a bike & was riding with my kids every night after school. Now the temps here are around 95 every day with high humidity and rain. The joys of summer in Central Florida. I should be working out indoors but I've been lazy. I'm determined to start now that I am settled into my new job (started 2 weeks ago) and am lighter. I had a great surprise today! I have a cocktail party to go to in 2 weeks and had nothing to wear. All my clothes are too big (Yahoo!!!). I went to Kohl's and found a dark navy lace dress that I thought was just gorgeous! I also thought "no way am I going to be able to wear this". Well, I had to have my daughter zip it (damn back zippers!) but IT FIT!!! And I looked amazing! I wanted to dance around the dressing room! I can't wait to knock 'em dead in 2 weeks! Inspiration to work out, too! I would love to see that dress a little loose next month! Good luck everyone!

Thanks for your note! I'd love to keep in touch & share accomplishments! Dr Kim did my surgery in Celebration. Who is doing yours? I am also ready for the weather to break. I do sales & I'm in & out of my hot car all day. I'm always out of it long enough for the car to heat up again and the leather seats are NOT nice this time of year. I make sure I pack a cheese stick and fruit & bottles of water to take with me. Food on the run is not that easy. I really don't do too much sugar free snack food. The only things I have & am grateful for is: Weight Watchers fudgesicles (not sure what the name is) and sugar free Klondike bars. The frozen treats are great! I was also happy to see the little ice cream carts at Disney have no sugar added Strawberry bars that are super yummy! What part of Central Florida are you in? I'm in Winter Park. Stack up on popsicles and broth for after the surgery! I am still using the protein drinks every day for breakfast. I really like them & they give me a 30 gram boost of protein right off the bat. Good luck & hope to hear back from you soon! Michelle

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
    • I'm literally almost crying reading this. Mostly because I'mon this pre-op diet and these last two days have been difficult... but also because I needed this! Thank you! Congrats! And a BIG congrats on quitting smoking a second time! It was hard enough to do it once... So - when I say BIG congrats... I mean BIIIIIG congrats! ❤️
